North Webster * 9 ; By MARGUERITE BLACK Rev. Oliver Neal, Chickasaw Indian, Speaker At North Webster Church

Rev. Oliver Neal, a Chickasaw Indian from Dallas, Tex., was a speaker at three meetings last week at the United Methodist church. On Tuesday afternoon he met with youth of the church after school, at the supper hour when adults had a chili supper in the dining room he spoke, and again at the WSCS general meeting. People have looked upon the Indians as a group without pride, even without ambition, but that is untrue. They have bden forced to live on reservations as wards of the government, with not enough schools, not enough land to raise food to maintain a fair living. They were pushed on

these reservations by white men as they went farther west. Only an education can help an Indian to get away from the reservation, to give him a better life. As mission schools were established, Indians became educated, they went out into the world and made their mark. Through one of these schools he received his education, and through a scholarship plan he was enabled to attend college. For awhile he worked as a social worker, but he was not allowed to .get “close” to his cases. Later he was a teacher, and yet he couldn’t reach the people like he wanted to. He felt he could do more for them if

he could preach, so he became a minister. During his early days as a minister he was through a trying ordeal when his baby boy was near death with pneumonia. It was at this time he made the commitment to serve his people and try to lift them. His son lived, and is now in his sophomore year of college. * During the Eisenhower administration the rehabilitation *law was passed. Families who wished to leave the reservation could go to a city and find work with the government giving them a stake. Many went, but found city life so difficult because of language and culture, they soon went back to the reservation. The program is still in effect, ohly now families are screened, taught English, and some job training before going. Since this, Indians are turning ud in important jobs all over the United States. Education is the one thing that can lift the Indian to become self-supporting and have dignity. A transition takes place when they are touched by Christianity. Rev. Neal is serving as a Christian Minister. —NWElkhart District Spring Meeting At Syracuse The Spring meeting of the Elkhart district of the WSCS was held Tuesday April 15, in the Calvary United Methodist church near Syracuse.
